They say that it takes a village to raise a child, and I say that it takes the support of incredible women to make your dreams come true. Case and point, your wedding day! From moms to maids of honour to flower girls, just to name a few, play pivotal roles in making your wedding day perfect. This International Women’s Day, we look at how women make a bride’s wedding dreams a reality. We do need a bride and groom for a wedding to take place but a mother’s touch and guidance du

Today I wanted to shine the spotlight on the gorgeous cottage esque Miller Lash House. I attended one of their planner lunches last month and got all the juicy details to share with you! Initially when walking into the venue, my first thought was that this would be an awesome space for intimate affairs. It was a decent size but the two largest rooms could most likely only fit up to ten tables each. I later found out that they had a way to cater to ALL event types with a large

This week, my husband and I have decided to steal away to one of our favourite places in the world: the west coast. The mountains have a very special place in our hearts, mainly because we got married in the Whistler Mountains, next to a private lake on a golf course with 40 of our close family and friends, almost 8 years ago. On our 5-year anniversary, we had decided to drive cross country, from Toronto to Vancouver and back again, for a dinner back at our wedding venue at t

Things have been bustling here at the Envision Weddings studio! As such, we’ve been a little delinquent in updating our blog and letting you guys in on some juicy, real weddings that we’ve done in past years. But nevertheless, here we are, and what a better way to kick off our 2020 real wedding blogs than to feature one of MY favourites from a couple years back? Christina contacted me back when we weren’t even at our studio yet, when I was hosting meetings out of my little of

At times the Holiday Season could feel just as expensive as a wedding but weddings don’t have to always be over-the-top and expensive. Weddings on a budget are possible! This week’s feature couple, Sara and David, had a small budget but we worked with their budget and brought their vision of a clean and beautiful wedding to life at the incredible Roma’s Hospitality. Our tips for a budget-friendly wedding is to know what you want and where you can make compromises. And as Walt

It doesn’t look like it right now, but Toronto can also be a hot destination for non-locals to get married as well! Sure, we don’t have the beach sand or the gorgeous mountains, but we have lots of other things to offer. Like Casa Loma, a 19th century castle in the heart of downtown Toronto, and the only one of its kind in the city. This is what attracted our lovely couple, Jessica and Rami, to wed at our beautiful fairytale landmark. Both coming from New York state, Jess and

Melanie was one of those brides who knew exactly what she wanted, and had planned her wedding since she was a little girl - colour palette picked out, elegant theme selected, the whole nine. But let’s backtrack. Melanie and I had a funny story on how we met. She had reached out to me by conventional means (i.e. email or website), and I took her call while she was in Nunavut, on assignment as a doctor - also my first time on record talking to someone from Nunavut - and halfway

Nowadays couples want to create unique experiences and memorable weddings. This is most commonly achieved through a theme. A theme gives life to a concept or an idea. Themes can be specific, general or broad. This week’s feature couple, Breann and Colin, had a beautiful winter wedding in December, they wanted to capture the essence of winter but leave out the Christmas vibe. Although, the couple opted for a head table and the bridal bouquet to have elements of Christmas. We h

Every wedding has those special details that make it memorable although you always get those specific weddings that are memorable in more ways then one. This week we are featuring a couple who is not shy to the spotlight, having their 2011 wedding aired on Four Weddings Canada. This was an awesome experience and Envision was so lucky to have been a part of J and M's big day. At one point Kimberly was filmed trying to find the groom for cake cutting (he was no where far just t

“Let us be grateful to the people who make us happy; they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom.”– Marcel Proust This week’s blog features Joanna and Phil’s rustic and intimate wedding, where Envision had the opportunity to do the florals and décor at the beautiful Rectory Café Toronto Island. We were grateful and excited to be part of this wedding because our bride, Joanna and Kimberly go way back – to their high school days! Joanna, also, helped out at the E
